80 Terrance Toliver
11 Kelvin Sheppard
7 Patrick Peterson
15 Brandon Taylor
4 Jai Eugene
Field: Rain, sloppy surface, muddy, bad field
Steven Wisniewski 14:06 1st - Good leverage, strong, very tough, physical, tenacious
Kelvin Sheppard 14:06 1st - Takes poor angle
Patrick Peterson 12:51 - Big hit, very physical to break up play
5:55 1st - Solid open field tackle...comfortable in space '
2:00 1st - Bites on double move (stutter step) and gives up TD
Joseph Barksdale 4:30 1st - Technically sound, light on his feet, nice hold vs. Crawford
3:55 1st - Short, athletic steps ... smooth, light on feet ... wider base, use hands better knocked off balance a bit
3:23 1st - Tampa-2 zone coverage, Peterson has inside leverage ... solid awareness, good technique, but he might have been able to get PBU here
:07 1st - Bad second step and doesn't seal off DE ... poor play
5:18 2nd - Great kick step, LOVE his footwork ... smooth athlete and picks up stunt
Brandon Taylor 3:15 1st - Very good job in run support ... good angle to ballcarrier and gets involved
Terrance Toliver 15:00 2nd - Good route on slant - really sells it and doesn't tip off ... shows a little fearlessness over the middle ... good ball security
3:52 2nd - Dropped football - INT was his fault, not QB's
Evan Royster 3:48 2nd - Unimpressive speed and quickness with great OL blocking for him here ... very soft run and goes down by himself ... should be more agressive. Big gain but unimpressive improvisation by Royster
1:53 2nd - Goes down easy ... lacks a lot of power and toughness
Jack Crawford lacks power in his base and gets blocked by Barksdale

Olson's Late Shots Lifts Men's Basketball Over Rhode Island
Nov. 23, 2012
KINGSTON, R.I. - Robert Olson hit a 3-pointer with 3.7 seconds left in regulation to tie the score at 50-50, and the senior guard then scored the go-ahead basket with 1:57 to play in overtime, and his game-high 20 points lifted Loyola University Maryland to a 58-54 win over the University of Rhode Island at the Ryan Center on Friday night.
The Rams (0-5 overall) led 50-47 on an Xavier Munford free throws with 18.3 seconds left, and the Greyhounds (5-1) called timeout with 10.1 showing in regulation.
Anthony Winbush inbounded the ball to Dylon Cormier between the halfcourt circles, and Cormier sent a bounce pass to Tyler Hubbard on the right side. Hubbard then slipped a pass to a curling Olson who drained his fourth three of the night to force the extra period.
Munford, who scored 14 points, led off the overtime with a three from the right side just 19 seconds in, but Jordan Latham scored the next three points for Loyola.
He used an up-and-under move on the Greyhounds' possession following Munford's three, and he then knocked down 1-of-2 at the free-throw line with 3:29 on the clock.
Latham finished with a career-high nine points to go with five rebounds, an assist and a block.
"I thought Jordan Latham was our life preserver tonight, he saved us with some really big plays," Head Coach Jimmy Patsos said. "Robert Olson came out with an intensity today that we really needed because we didn't play well, especially early. He carried us for a bit, and his three at the end of regulation was obviously huge."
Rhode Island came back to take a 54-53 advantage on a Jordan Hare free throw, but that was the last the Rams scored in the extra period. Loyola held them to 1-of-8 from the field in overtime.
After Loyola missed a free throw on its offensive end, and Rhode Island got the ball back, Dylon Cormier came up with a steal defensively for Loyola, and in transition, Anthony Winbush found Olson the right side, and he laid it off the glass to put the Greyhounds up, 55-54.
Both teams missed shots following Olson's go-ahead bucket, and then a Rhode Island inbound pass was tipped by Erik Etherly, and Olson came up with the loose ball. With the shot clock winding down, Olson pulled up from 18 feet and swished a jumper over an extended Rams player to make the lead 57-54 with 33.9 on the clock.
The Rams saw two 3-point attempts fall short after Olson's bucket, and Etherly came down with the rebound after the final miss. Loyola, however, could not easily close out the game at the free-throw line.
Etherly missed one, but Winbush came down with the offensive board and was fouled. Winbush, however, missed two, , but he got his own rebound and Loyola retained possession.
Cormier was fouled with 6.1 on the clock, and he made the second of two to put the lead at four.
Olson's 20 points were one off his career high. He also had four rebounds and two steals.
Etherly had 11 points and 10 rebounds, his first double-double of the year.
In addition to Munford's 14, Nikola Malesevic led Rhode Island with 16 points, and Andre Malone had 11. Jordan Hare scored eight points and led all players with 16 rebounds and seven blocked shots.
The Greyhounds return to Baltimore for their next two games, first a home game on Monday, November 26, against 7:30 p.m. versus Towson University, followed by a game at Coppin State University on Wednesday, November 28, also at 7:30 p.m.

TortoiseSVN is a Windows shell extension that provides a user-friendly interface for Subversion, which is designed to allow developers easily maintain current and historical file versions.
Choose what sits in the Windows context menu
After installing this software versioning application, one additional item is integrated in the context menu of any file in your computer. From there, you can access the Repo-browser and the program's settings. The latter window allows you to customize the items that appear in the context menu and other options.
Create local repositories
In order to create repositories, developers normally use a Subversion server. But with the help of TortoiseSVN, you can easily transform an empty folder into a new local repository, which acts just like a server, allowing you to store files. The "Import" window enables you to assign a short description of the action you are performing and all the changes are recorded in your project history log.
When making changes to any file that is also found in the repository, even if you modify a line in a text file, the performed actions are recorded by TortoiseSVN.
Compare and view text files
In order to view them, you can use TortoiseMerge, an application that displays a two-sided window, enabling you to compare the revision and the original file contents.
The spotted differences are highlighted, so you can view them much better. Moreover, you can use TortoiseMerge to easily compare any text files you want.
Compare images and bring up logs
While TortoiseMerge enables you to compare text files' content, TortoiseDiff allows you to compare two images. The side-to-side display and the overlaying option are the two features that enable you to easily identify any difference between the opened pictures. You can set the viewing options as you desire: link image positions, change their displaying size, zoom in and out.
One useful feature of TortoiseSVN is the possibility to view the project log. This way, you can keep track of any change that has been made to your files and folders.
Bottom line
To conclude, TortoiseSVN is a simple, yet useful and customizable program designed to help you easily manage files and folders over time. Using it, you can view all the modifications that a file has suffered and recover previous versions of it.

Living The Dream...
Searching for Horse Property, Farms, Ranches and Equestrian Estates
By Claire Panke
Purchasing a horse property isn't just buying a piece of real estate; it's investing in way of life.
While some people long for manicured suburban lawns or pine for upscale urban lofts, for the horse enthusiast miles of board fenced paddocks and lighted riding arenas are what make the heart beat faster. Whether the goal is a turn-key training center, a breeding farm or just a few acres for that special pasture ornament, your purchase of a horse property can be the fulfillment of a dream - or the beginning of a nightmare.
Buying an equestrian property can be equal parts daunting and exciting, but, as with any major personal investment, the key to a successful outcome is to be prepared. Before you write an offer on that dream ranch you'll want to consult with experts and do some basic homework. Now is a wonderful time to purchase real estate: prices have declined in most areas of the US (in some markets quite substantially) while interest rates have remained at an all time low. Armed with knowledge and the guidance of a real estate professional, you can make the right decisions to fulfill your dream...a horse farm of your very own.
First, take a realistic look at your goals and needs:
Having your horses out your back door can be one of the happiest decisions you'll ever make.
However, consider not only what you can afford, but also how much time you'll be able to devote to your horse activities once you're in a horse property. While you may envision yourself the proud owner of acres and acres of rolling green pastures, the reality is that all horse properties entail a certain amount of work. Embracing the equestrian lifestyle means a serious commitment to the health and safety of your equine friends along with a constant cycle of maintenance and upkeep of barns, outbuildings and fences. If your work and family commitments demand much of your time, or you find your financial resources limited, perhaps a small acreage (or "mini-farm") will be your best option. (And remember that only so many horses can be sustained "per" acre.)
For the professional or serious horse person with specialized needs, investigate whether there are existing facilities in your area which meet your requirements or if building new is the better option. The horse industry is capital intensive - land, barns, fences, arenas etc. represent a large investment.
Assuming that the residence on your prospective horse farm meets your needs, the first and foremost asset in a horse property is its functionality. Existing structures can often be modified or improved to meet specific needs if they are in good condition. Cosmetic changes are relatively inexpensive and make a big difference in a property's appeal. An architect, contractor or a structural engineer should be consulted for any major additions or alterations. Restored vintage barns can be charming - indeed, many have been successfully renovated for horses and are quite beautiful as well as practical.
However, older barns/outbuildings with deferred maintenance issues or structural defects may be impractical or prohibitively expensive to remodel. Even after improvements are made these structures may still require constant attention. In such cases it's more cost effective to start fresh. Functional obsolescence, such as a too narrow aisle or poor drainage, can severely limit a building's usefulness. Consider also the lay of the land and how the improvements are sited upon it. For example, if you need a half mile training track, you'll also need enough level ground to build one. If you ship commercial, you'll need ample area around your barns for a semi to drive in and turn around - unless you relish loading horses on the road.
Enlist the help of a pro:
You wouldn't try to perform surgery on yourself, so why would you spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on an important personal investment without expert advice?
A good real estate agent will not only save you time and money but also a mountain of headaches. Indeed, a knowledgeable, experienced realtor who understands horse farms is your best ally in the search for your equestrian property.
Horse farms are unique - what marketers call a niche market. While there may be many excellent real estate agents in a given area, finding a horse farm is about more than MLS access and handling paperwork. A realtor who speaks "horse" is an invaluable asset - that person will know that single strand barbed wire isn't suitable horse fencing and that cattle stanchions are not "stalls".
Your ranch/horse farm specialist will be familiar with local zoning issues that might impact the usage of your prospective purchase and will also know which lenders will finance acreage and farm properties. He or she will have networked with other horse owners and agents and will be aware of suitable equestrian properties that may not yet be on the market - many prime horse farms are sold through word of mouth before ever being listed. The horse savvy realtor will also be a great resource for barn builders, contractors, fencers, painters, vets, farriers, county extension agents, attorneys, surveyors and other professionals you may need to contact before or after the sale.
Your realtor will be representing you as a "buyer agent", which means that person will be committed to looking out for your best interests alone and getting you the best possible deal on your new horse farm. You won't pay anything extra for your realtor's services - the commission will usually be paid to your buyer agent from the seller's fees on your behalf.
Some areas of the country have real estate firms that specialize in equestrian properties. In other locations there will usually be several realtors with horse farm expertise - ask for referrals from friends and persons who have recently bought or sold horse farms. If you're relocating through a third party company, be sure to tell your coordinator that you prefer to work with an equine property specialist.
Although I've used the terms "agent" and "realtor" interchangeably, there is in fact a difference. All realtors are agents but not all agents are realtors. A realtor is a professional who is a member of the National Association of Realtors and the local Board of Realtors. As such, a realtor pledges to a higher level of ethics and service - always make sure that your buyer agent is a "realtor", someone committed to the highest standards of practice in his or her profession.
Talk to a lender:
Now that you've decided to take the plunge and you've found an agent to assist you, the next step is to contact one or more local lenders to determine how much you can borrow. By getting pre-approved for a mortgage you'll not only have peace of mind but you'll also be in a stronger bargaining position when you submit a formal offer. Most sellers will request a copy of a pre-approval letter before entering into serious negotiations with a buyer.
The mortgage sector has undergone several adjustments during the recent financial crises. While money is available to qualified buyers, underwriting guidelines and credit requirements have tightened. Small acreages where the improvements (which to your lender usually mean the house and garage) constitute at least 70% of the property value should be relatively easy to finance. However, larger acreages or commercial equestrian facilities can be more of a challenge. Unless the buyer has enough assets to shoulder a sizeable personal loan, most large interstate banks are not interested in loaning money on these types of properties. But there are other resources available - your equine specialist realtor will know local lenders willing finance farms and acreage.
Location, location, location:
It's an old adage but it's true - location is key in real estate. It's the one thing you cannot change about any property - you can remodel, add on to or tear down, but land is where it is forever.
One of the most important aspects of this truism is that real estate is local - that is to say, market conditions affecting your prospective horse property are specific to that small geographic area. Different areas of the country, even different areas within a state or major metropolitan area, will reflect different market conditions.
Newspaper articles and TV broadcasts tend to focus on national trends - syndicated columnists are often fixated on markets on the coasts. There is useful information to be gleaned from the news but be cautious about applying national headlines to local market conditions. Such generalizations can be misleading without expert knowledge about your particular location so it's wise to look to local statistics to find out the most relevant recent trends to your specific locale.
Just because you read something on web doesn't make it true - always ask your realtor for latest market data for the areas you're interested in. Your agent is at ground zero of the housing market and has access to the latest sales information.
Your preferred location is determined by many factors - proximity to your commute to work, highway access, quality of schools, access to trails and parks, affordability, and for commercial farms, proximity to services and customers. Zoning restrictions in certain locations may restrict usage or building options. Water, utilities, local special assessments, tax rates etc will also have an impact on your decision.
In rapidly developing metropolitan areas where land values are high, it's becoming more difficult to find reasonably priced properties within easy commute of town centers. Acreage whose "highest and best use" is for future development will be priced beyond the reach for most horse aficionados. You may need to broaden your search regarding price range, size, amenities or commuting distance to find a more affordable option. As long as you are within easy access of major roads or interstates you may be able to expand your range.
Now make the dream come true...
You've been pre-approved for financing, selected a realtor specializing in horse farms, pored over newspapers, the internet and MLS sites, and now you're ready to begin your quest for that special equestrian property. If you don't find the perfect farm or ranch right away don't be discouraged. Rest assured once you find that perfect mini-Calumet Farm or King Ranch, your agent will help you negotiate terms and guide you through the buying process to make your dream a reality.
An accepted purchase agreement is not the end of the journey; the steps from accepted offer to successful closing will be covered in our next article.
In the meantime...happy hunting!

KinderCareRead MoreLike most parents, Cyndi R. doesn't like to take chances with her child's wellbeing.

The center's Assistant Director even took the time to answer all of her questions, both before and after she decided to enroll her son. The thing is, this isn't a unique experience. KinderCare now has more than 1,700 centers, and parents across the country share similar thoughts on their local educators. To hear them tell it, it's the commitment of those teachers that makes all the difference. Twice a year, KinderCare hosts the largest early childhood teacher-training program in the country, and every center pursues national accreditation. All of this translates into the development of social, emotional, physical, and intellectual skills in infants and children up to 12 years old. That may seem like a lot of skills to entrust a daycare with, but KinderCare is more than just a daycare—in fact, it's better to think of it as a learning center. During daycare, kindergarten, and before- and after-school programs, KinderCare's educators lead activities that focus on six different areas, including math and science, language and literacy, and the art of opening a tricky juice box.9150 Peets StreetElk Grove, CA US

Patients with early onset neurodegenerative disease can present with a clinical syndrome that overlaps with schizophrenia, and it is not uncommon for these patients to undergo long-term care in psychiatric settings rather than receiving more appropriate care by neurologists specializing in their disease.
A 35-year old woman who presented with new-onset delusions, eating abnormalities, disorganized behavior, lack of insight, disinhibition, and stereotypical motor behaviors was diagnosed with schizophrenia and institutionalized. Later she was found to have a MAPT tau S356T mutation and a focal pattern of brain atrophy consistent with frontotemporal dementia (FTD).
Physicians should be aware of the potential overlap in symptoms and age of onset between some forms of FTD and schizophrenia, and should include FTD in the diagnostic differential for adult patients with new onset, rapidly progressive personality changes or behavioral symptoms such as binge eating, high levels of social disinhibition, or progressive mutism.
Contrary to common clinical assumptions, neurodegenerative disease can begin as early as the third decade of life, and some of these young patients present with isolated neuropsychiatric rather than cognitive symptoms. These cases can exemplify the diagnostic overlap between psychiatric and neurologic disease, as well as the procedural gaps that sometimes occur between psychiatric and neurologic clinical services. While technically these patients present with a psychiatric disorder, the cause of their symptoms is a specific neuropathological disease that in many cases may be identifiable by genetic testing or a careful family history. Symptomatic and even disease-modifying treatments for some of these neurodegenerative diseases are currently in clinical trials and thus it is becoming increasingly urgent that clinicians recognize these "zebras" early in the disease process. Retrospective examination of these patients' clinical course may yield important information to improve diagnostic accuracy in the future. We report the case of a young woman who was initially diagnosed with schizophrenia in her 30's, but was found to have a rare genetic mutation in a tau-related gene, which together with a specific pattern of brain atrophy, predict a 3R tauopathy, i.e., frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD) with Pick's neuropathology.1 This suggests that the more appropriate clinical diagnosis for this patient was behavioral variant frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD), a diagnosis that could have led to an entirely different clinical care plan.
Ms. A was referred to our tertiary care memory disorders clinic at the age of 43 after an eight-year history of progressive personality, behavioral and language changes. Symptoms began at age 35 when she stole her mother's wedding ring. When confronted by her mother, Ms. A admitted to taking the jewelry but was indifferent to her mother's distress and stated that her mother gave her the ring. This same year she was fired from her job due to inappropriate sexual behavior (e.g. grabbing colleagues' genitals and stating, "You will like it!"). At age 36, Ms. A became self-centered, sexually inappropriate with friends, emotionally distant, and was unconcerned about her significant occupational, financial and personal losses. She began hoarding animal carcasses, compulsively stuffing her mouth with pet food and inedible objects such as paper and gained 30 pounds due to binge eating.
Ms. A did not enter into medical care until age 37 when she was caught shoplifting at a store she had robbed hours earlier, at which time she was jailed and referred for mental health evaluation. At evaluation, Ms. A was delusional and incorrectly claimed she was a park ranger who "saved a little girl from being bitten by a rattle snake. The snake did not bite me as I picked it up and kissed it. I guess the snake knew that I wasn't afraid of wild life." She also explained how she had saved a child from sexual assault by showing her breast to the assailant and distracting him. Her physician noted "an overall sense of suspiciousness and [an] absolutely strikingly inappropriate affect in that she is totally unconcerned with having been to jail…she denies having a mental health condition and denies stealing property." Initially she was diagnosed with delusional disorder and this was later changed to paranoid schizophrenia. Shortly afterwards, the patient underwent psychiatric institutionalization due to increasingly aberrant eating behavior (she ate rapidly and choked on food and inedible objects), self-neglect (e.g. unwillingness to maintain hygiene), and dangerous behavior (e.g. walking through traffic, shoplifting, hypersexuality). During the course of her psychiatric treatment and institutionalization, the patient was started on antipsychotic medications and underwent ineffective trials of olanzapine (max daily doses: 40mg), sertraline (50 mg), clozaril (500mg), risperidone (5mg), and ziprasidone (440mg). While institutionalized, Ms. A developed bladder incontinence, gained an additional 20 pounds, and stopped engaging in even basic self-care, eventually requiring constant one-on-one supervision. She became mute, which clinicians attributed to paranoiaand the effects of lorazapam. She was put in group therapy to encourage her to speak and the lorazapam was tapered, but her mutism remained constant. Ms. A continued to receive social support from her mother, but she lost contact with her two brothers who were angry at her because of the grief her disinhibited and criminal behavior caused their family.
A developmental history revealed that Ms. A was born prematurely and stayed in the NICU two days. As an infant she had pneumonia and was diagnosed with "cough-induced seizure disorder", but achieved normal developmental milestones by 9 months of age. She completed a master's degree in anthropology, worked as an office assistant and was a successful, published poet. She had no history of head injury, psychiatric illness or significant substance use. Family history was significant for unknown psychiatric illnesses in the patient's father, two paternal aunts, and a paternal grandmother, as well as two paternal cousins who both were diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia and both committed suicide.
Ms. A's mother was concerned that her daughter's treatment resistant, progressive deterioration was dissimilar to other patients with schizophrenia at the institution, and successfullyfought for her to receive neurological evaluation a year after Ms. A had been institutionalized. On examination at our clinic, Ms. A was not depressed, aggressive, or agitated but was occasionally anxious and irritable. She chewed gum, violated interpersonal space by leaning inappropriately close to the examiner, rocked her body back and forth in her chair and played with a toy cat, which she petted and hid in her sleeves. Vital signs and general physical exam were unremarkable. Her lack of speech limited neurological examination, although her motor functioning showed normal bulk and power in all extremities. She walked with a narrow base and normal stride, but with decreased arm swing bilaterally. There was slight increase in tone in the upper extremities bilaterally.
A brief standard neuropsychological battery was attempted with Ms. A, but she provided only minimal verbal responses, had poor task persistence even with maximal redirection by the examiner, and was highly stimulus-bound and perseverative on written and visuospatial tasks. She was able to read 6/10 regular and irregular words out loud, repeated 1/5 phonemically complex phrases, named colors on demand, and named 1/15 objects ("flower") on a confrontation naming task, saying nonsense words or becoming echolalic on the other items. She copied many gestalt and detail elements of a complex figure (8/17 points), despite obtaining a score of 0/30 on the MMSE.
A structural brain MRI showed severe bilateral frontal orbital and insular atrophy (Fig 1). Laboratory studies of serum electrolytes, and liver and thyroid function were within normal range. RPR was negative. Genetic testing showed a MAPT tau T>A mutation in exon 12, predicted to cause the amino acid change S356T. Based on the patient's progressive cognitive, behavioral and personality changes, and further supported by the tau mutation and characteristic pattern of medial frontal-anterior temporal brain atrophy, she was given a clinical diagnosis of behavioral variant frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD), with a predicted neuropathology of FTLD-Pick's, a 3-repeat tauopathy.
We report the case of a young woman with bvFTD and a rare tau-mutation who was initially diagnosed with schizophrenia, but for whom a more accurate clinical diagnosis would have been bvFTD because the neuropathological cause of her symptoms is a known neurodegenerative disease. The majority of individuals presenting in their 30's with new-onset psychotic symptoms do not have identifiable neurologic diseases, and are thus appropriately diagnosed and treated for schizophrenia. With Ms. A, the clinical diagnosis of schizophrenia led to a long psychiatric institutionalization involving inappropriate behavioral and psychotropic treatments and significantly increased discord in her family, which substantially improved after they learned the genetic, neurodegenerative nature of her condition and received disease-appropriate counseling. Early, accurate diagnosis could have ensured that bvFTD-specific psychotropic and behavioral interventions would be used to manage her symptoms, and the progression of her symptoms could have been better predicted which would have helped her family cope. Though there are currently no cures for schizophrenia or bvFTD, Ms. A may have been a candidate for one of the new clinical trials that are currently underway to treat neurodegenerative tauopathies2 had her condition been identified earlier. The new treatment options that are rapidly appearing raise the stakes for clinicians to provide the most accurate clinical diagnosis possible for a patient presenting with a new-onset neuropsychiatric disorder.
Distinguishing between bvFTD and schizophrenia is a diagnostic challenge, particularly in a young patient. Symptoms of bvFTD may include sexual disinhibition, poor hygiene, compulsivity, anti-social behavior, loss of insight, diminished executive function and loss of empathy,3, 4 which may be mistaken for symptoms of schizophrenia.4 Additionally, while psychosis is only reported in 10% of bvFTD cases,5 Ms. A demonstrates that psychosis in patients with bvFTD may increase a clinician's suspicion of schizophrenia and delay neurological referral. The grandiose and paranoid nature of her delusions is typical for what is seen with bvFTD.The incidence of bvFTD before age 45 is not known, but it is presumably less than 3.5–4.8 per 100,000 people, the incidence observed in the age group 45–64.6,7 While rare, bvFTD onset before age 45 is reported, with some of the earliest cases occurring in patients' mid-twenties.8 Often, these early-onset cases are the result of a genetic mutation transmitted in their family. The incidence of first-onset schizophrenia between age 30 and 45 is estimated to be 37.5–96.0 per 100,000 people,9 thus is more common than bvFTD during mid-life.6 Thus, a diagnosis of schizophrenia in a young patient with new onset behavioral symptoms is statistically more common, which may bias clinicians against recognizing bvFTD.
A family history of a psychotic illness is considered supportive of a diagnosis of schizophrenia, however, it is now recognized in some families with mutations in tau, familial schizophrenia was the first diagnosis.8 In retrospect, patients with familial bvFTD often demonstrate a highly penetrant, autosomal-dominant pattern of inheritance,10 and it is unlikely that bvFTD would have been accurately diagnosed in previous generations due to lack of medical attention to this disease until recent years. Thus, a family history of a highly penetrant psychotic illness may be equally likely to indicate familial bvFTD or schizophrenia. In fact, the genetic mutation seen in Ms. A was previously reported to cause early onset bvFTD in a family in which multiple individuals were incorrectly diagnosed with schizophrenia.8 Ms. A's symptoms included delusions, disorganized behavior, lack of insight, disinhibition, and repetitive behavior, which in conjunction with her young age and family history of apparent psychiatric illness, suggest that the degree to which the clinical syndrome of bvFTD can overlap with schizophrenia should not be underestimated.
Some differences may be discerned. Although in young, familial cases of bvFTD the diagnostic markers distinguishing bvFTD and schizophrenia are elusive, by aggregating the natural histories of this case and a series of other similar cases recently appearing in the literature, it may be possible to delineate symptom patterns which suggest FTLD neuropathology as the source of a patient's symptoms. Retrospectively, qualitative analysis of Ms. A's eating abnormalities, the specific nature of her disinhibition and decrease in speech, and the rapid, treatment-resistant progression of her symptoms were all more suggestive of bvFTD than schizophrenia.
First, eating abnormalities are well-characterized features of bvFTD1, 11 and Ms. A's early binge eating, weight gain and compulsive desire to eat inedible objects may have been a useful diagnostic clue that she suffered from bvFTD. Pica is rare in schizophrenia12 and there is at least one other report of a young patient with pica being diagnosed with schizophrenia but actually having bvFTD.13 Also unlike patients with schizophrenia, patients with bvFTD often show a qualitative change in the manner of food intake, which can include overstuffing their mouths to the point of gagging, and being unable to stop themselves from eating long after they feel full as long as food remains in front of them.11 Overeating and weight gain when present in schizophrenia are typically due to physiological side effects from atypical anti-psychotic medications. Ms. A's compulsive overeating, weight gain and pica began prior to the initiation of these medications, and taking these drugs likely merely exacerbated Ms. A's already profound eating disturbances.
Second, Ms. A's social disinhibition, i.e., her tendency to say and do socially inappropriate and even shocking things without regard to social context (e.g., at work), was a profound and early symptom in her illness. Though patients with schizophrenia can certainly be inappropriate, particularly when speaking out of a delusional belief system, the broad degree of disregard for all social rules seen in Ms. A is more consistent with bvFTD than schizophrenia. Even when compared directly, patients with bvFTD are rated by caregivers as significantly more disinhibited than are patients with schizophrenia.14
Third, Ms. A's steady decline in speech production and her eventual near-muteness was attributed to social paranoia and to medications, but this deterioration progressed despite adding support groups to encourage speech and tapering of her medications. Patients with bvFTD are known to have progressively decreased speech output and often become mute, though this is typically a form of "elective mutism" due to apathetic disengagement and failure to organize a speech response, rather than a loss of motor speech production or capacity for language comprehension.1 Although patients with schizophrenia are often characterized by decreased speech output,14 these patients rarely become permanently mute. Finally, Ms. A's rapid, treatment-resistant progression over 8 years is distinct from the typically slow decline and long periods of plateaued functioning seen in younger patients with schizophrenia. Furthermore, Ms. A's symptoms did not respond at all to multiple antipsychotic drug trials, which may have been a clue that she did not have a typical schizophrenia syndrome.
The accurate diagnosis of neurodegenerative diseases, particularly in early onset cases, is important for appropriate treatment and clinical care. Patients like Ms. A present a particular challenge to physicians, who must carefully weigh the benefit of a costly neurological referral versus the risk of an incomplete diagnostic work-up leading to misdiagnosis and inappropriate treatments, such as antipsychotic medications that may worsen cognitive symptoms.15 Importantly, patients with bvFTD are prone to harsher consequences of an erroneous diagnosis such as inappropriate imprisonment, because bvFTD challenges the legal notion of "insanity".16 Clues that merit further neurological work-up in patients diagnosed with schizophrenia include profound eating abnormalities before the administration of psychotropics, high levels of social disinhibition, severe poverty of speech, the presence of a family history of a highly penetrant, autosomal dominant psychiatric illness (which could represent a repeatedly misdiagnosed neurodegenerative disease) and most importantly, rapidly progressive symptoms which may be unresponsive to medications. Physicians should be aware of the potential overlap in symptoms and age of onset between bvFTD and schizophrenia, and should include bvFTD in the diagnostic differential of adult patients with new symptoms of behavioral and personality change.

As promised, here's a look at Sugarloaf (a/k/a 1175) Hill. But first two announcements:
- The 46L bus line goes from the Coliseum BART station past the zoo to Oakland's remote Grass Valley neighborhood. It's the only public transit providing access to the area that includes all of Knowland Park. AC Transit funded a year-long trial of this route to restore service that was cut in 2010, when a transbay line served the area. It's still a bit of a trek to reach the park, but for carless people it's essentially impossible without the 46L. (Yes, the bus has a bike rack.) There will be a hearing on September 2 at an awkward time, 5 pm, to consider keeping the 46L going. That's what staff recommends, but I will lobby the board to continue service because it's up to them, not the staff. I hope you'll speak up too. [Update: The AC Transit Board voted to make the route permanent.]
- Speaking of Knowland Park, I'm discussing the possibility of leading some geology walks up there next month, for Wild Oakland. Updates here and there.
Thank you.
Sugarloaf Hill is on the rear side of the Merritt College campus and is in the Leona Canyon Preserve. The East Bay Regional Parks District has plans to enable access to Leona Canyon when the college is closed, though it seems like a low priority for them.
The trail up the hill is not marked or mapped, but it's not hard to find. As you go up through the woods, you'll pass exposures of the Leona "rhyolite" that underlies this whole area.
Once above the trees, the campus unfolds below you. This shot also shows the range of habitats on the hill. (It's a 1000-pixel shot; there are three more later in this post.)
The upper part of the hill is largely grassland with ferns and some bedrock. The soil is very thin. This land used to be grazed. The grassland, says the EBPRD, is dominantly non-native species. It doesn't mention the ferns, considering them part of the forest biome.
Besides grassland, the hill comprises shrubland and oak/bay woodland. Some parts are pleasingly mixed.
The view west over Leona Canyon juxtaposes grassland and forest. The forest is typical coast live oak and bay laurel, along with buckeye and hazelnut and a whole bunch of different native shrubs. The houses are on Campus Drive.
And this view south over Leona Canyon shows the shrubland, consisting of coyote brush, sagebrush and poison oak. It's quite overgrown. Absent grazing or fires, this tends to turn into oak/bay forest.
The rocks don't form many outcrops, per se. There are abundant boulders like this one. They're naturally covered with lichens, so you have to search to see any details of this metamorphosed volcanic sandstone. Please don't take a hammer to this stone—besides being protected by EBRPD rules, it deserves to look the way it wants. (1000px)
The point of a hill, so to speak, is its top and the views it makes available. When I climbed Sugarloaf Hill it was a cool and hazy day, so the next two photos are just versions of what you might see from there. Here's looking north toward the ridge of Redwood Peak, over the ballfields and solar array of Merritt College. (1000px)
And here's looking south over Leona Canyon from the summit. The rectangle of boulders is I think the work of idlers rather than the remnants of an old foundation. On the horizon, from left to right, are the dimly seen Knife, the dark wooded ridge behind Lake Chabot, and tree-topped Fairmont Ridge behind the hills of Knowland Park. (1000px)
Your viewing may vary.

BEIJING | Protesting during the Beijing Olympics should be easy.
Before the games began, Beijing's Olympic Organizing Committee announced that people would have the right to protest in designated zones inside three public parks in Beijing - a surprise decision, given China's obsession with security and unyielding intolerance to open criticism.
Yet not a grunt of discontent has been heard in any of the three parks.
It's the classic Catch-22. You are free to protest, but you need a permit. The public security bureau is not issuing permits and is instead detaining some Chinese who dare to submit an application form until the end of the Olympics, seemingly reflecting critics' fears that the parks were merely political traps.
"The protest application process clearly isn't about giving people greater freedom of expression, but making it easier for the police to suppress it," said Sophie Richardson, Asia advocacy director at Human Rights Watch.
Human Rights Watch reported Wednesday that a Chinese activist from southern Fujian province, Ji Suzun, 58, had been detained by plainclothes security agents after going back to a Beijing police station to check on the status of his application to protest against local government corruption.
Four applicants are known to have been detained, including Zhang Wei, a Beijing resident who planned to protest the demolition of her courtyard home in the ancient neighborhood of Qianmen.
Ge Yifei, a well-known property rights advocate from the city of Suzhou, said she was trying to fill out an application when officials from her hometown showed up to escort her back to the train station.
And the authorities have not scrimped on exceptions. Police can reject a protest if it is deemed to "harm national, social and collective interests," "national unity" or "public order" - abstract terms designed to cover pretty much anything of the government's choosing.
Tibetan groups never even entertained the idea of applying.
"The idea that a Tibetan could even safely apply for a permit to protest during the Beijing Olympics is a sad joke," said Lhadon Tethong, executive director of Students for a Free Tibet, shortly after the protest venues were announced.
Not even groups wanting to protest for the glory of the motherland have been granted permission.
An application by the China Federation of Defending Diaoyutai Islands, a citizens group that supports China's claim to the islands that are under the control of Japan, was refused permission to protest.
Government officials are thought to fear an outpouring of nationalistic sentiment directed at wartime foe Japan is not in line with the Olympic spirit.
When questioned repeatedly about the protest parks at a press conference last week, Wang Wei, executive vice president of the Beijing Olympic Organizing Committee, said the mere fact China had set up protest areas for its citizens during the games showed the country was on the right track.
